The inhibition of Candida albicans secreted aspartyl proteinase by triangular gold nanoparticles
Objective(s): The aim of this study was to synthesize triangular gold nanoparticles, and then to evaluate their capability for inhibition of Candida albicans secreted aspartyl proteinase 2(Sap2).Materials and Methods: To synthesize the nanoparticles, hydrogen tetrachloroaurate and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide were incubated in presence of Sn(IV) meso-tetra(N-methyl-4-pyridyl) porphine t...
متن کاملA triple deletion of the secreted aspartyl proteinase genes SAP4, SAP5, and SAP6 of Candida albicans causes attenuated virulence.
Secreted aspartyl proteinases (Saps) from Candida albicans are encoded by a multigene family with at least nine members (SAP1 to SAP9) and are considered putative virulence factors important for the pathogenicity of this human pathogen. The role of Sap isoenzymes in the virulence of C. albicans has not yet been clearly established, and therefore, using recent progress in the genetics of this ye...

متن کاملInhibition of growth and secreted aspartyl proteinase production in Candida albicans by lysozyme.
Lysozyme (muramidase) is a non-specific, antimicrobial protein ubiquitous in human mucosal secretions such as saliva. Although its antibacterial and antifungal activities are well recognised, there are no data on the specific concentrations necessary to affect the growth of Candida albicans or about the effect of lysozyme on the production of secreted aspartyl proteinase (Sap), a putative virul...
متن کاملIn vitro study of secreted aspartyl proteinases Sap1 to Sap3 and Sap4 to Sap6 expression in Candida albicans pleomorphic forms.
Transition from round budding cells to long hyphal forms and production of secreted aspartic proteases (Saps) are considered virulence-associated factors of Candida albicans. Although plenty of data dealing with Saps involvement in the infection process have been published, Saps expression by the different pleomorphic forms as well as the capacity of C. albicans filaments to express Sap1-6 unde...
